Brief summary
This study aimed (1) revaluating the efficacy of the Wells' clinical prediction score for an inpatient population; and the weight of the presence of thromboprophylaxis treatment on the score, and (2) evaluating the correlation of a risk stratification established between a physician specialised in thrombosis and any other doctor.
Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TESTDoppler ultrasound
Each patient received Doppler ultrasound for research of DVT, no matter the risk stratification.
